Bali intimate wear began in 1927 by Sara Stein. Working on a Singer sewing machine, she created a new styled brassiere. In the first year, the bra had $10,000 in sales under the name of Fay-Miss. In 1935, the name changed to Bali Brassiere Company. The key to the company's success was creating comfortable, quality and well-fitting bras. Today, the company's focus is still on comfortable and well-fitting bras that flatter a woman's figure. Using Bali's measuring directions and their bra size calculator are the first steps to have a correctly fitted bra.
Put on a good fitting bra. Using a measuring tape, measure around your ribcage under the bust, close to the bra. Keep the tape straight and secure. Write down the measurement.
Measure around the fullest area of the bust. Keep the measuring tape straight and secure, especially across your back. Write down the measurement.
